Quality

Some of the best accolades we receive at Novant Health Forsyth Internal Medicine come from our satisfied patients. We also value the awards and honors we receive from organizations dedicated to recognizing quality healthcare.

National Committee on Quality Assurance

The National Committee on Quality Assurance is an organization that analyzes and ranks medical offices and hospitals throughout the country. NCQA evaluates each on their qualifications and level of response to different medical situations. Based on this, Novant Health Forsyth Internal Medicine doctors have been recognized for providing outstanding diabetes care, and quality heart and stroke care.

Patient-Centered Medical Home

The Patient-Centered Medical Home designation is a relatively new one given to primary care physicians who meet certain standards in coordinating care for their patients. Novant Health Forsyth Internal Medicine earned the designation because of our commitment to providing seamless care to our patients. We work to integrate care in our office, and any care required from a specialist or at a hospital. We also strive to include caregivers and other physicians in each patient's network of care.

Joint Commission Accreditation

At least once every three years Novant Medical Group Forsyth Region practices undergo a rigorous approval process by the Joint Commission for Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). JCAHO is an independent, not-for-profit organization which sets the standards by which healthcare quality is measured in America and around the world. Our practices are among the nearly 16,000 healthcare organizations that JCAHO evaluated for the quality and safety of care.

To maintain and earn accreditation, some practices undergo an extensive on-site review by a team of JCAHO healthcare professionals. The purpose of the review is to evaluate the organization's performance in areas that affect your care. Accreditation may be awarded based on how well the organizations met JCAHO standards.

Also, our parent company, Novant Health, has been nationally recognized as the "Best in Industry for Working Mothers" by Working Mother magazine and one of the "Top 40 Family-Friendly NC Companies" by Charlotte Parent and Piedmont Parent magazines.
